Abu Abdullah (as) said: "Whoever initiates aggression and is then retaliated against, there is no retribution (qisas) for him."

I asked Abu Abdullah (as) about the stoning mentioned in the Quran. Imam (as) replied: "Yes." I asked: "How is it mentioned?" Imam (as) said: "The old man and the old woman - stone them absolutely, for they have fulfilled their desire."

2. Imam Zainul Abideen (a.s.) narrates from Imam Husain (a.s.) that Amirul Momineen (a.s.) said, “Paradise is prohibited for three types of people – a slanderer, a murderer and a drunkard.”

"There is no legal punishment upon him."

"There is neither blood money (compensation) for him nor retaliation (legal retribution)."

I asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who poured hot water on another man's head, causing his hair to fall out and never grow back. Imam (as) said: "He must pay the full blood money (diyyah)."

Hadith.5199 - Sulayman ibn Khalid asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who hired a wet nurse and entrusted his child to her. While the child was with her, the wet nurse went and hired another woman to care for the child. This second wet nurse then disappeared with the child, and it became unknown what happened to the child, and the original wet nurse could not be held accountable. Imam (as) said: "The full blood money (diyyah) must be paid."

I asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who was struck with a stick and was not released until he was killed. Should the killer be handed over to the heirs of the slain? Imam (as) said: "Yes, but he should not be left for them to abuse; rather, retribution should be carried out upon him."

“’Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.), issued a judgment about the wergild of one slain that the heirs inherit from it according to the book of Allah their shares if there is no debt on the deceased except the brothers and sisters from the mother’s side who do not inherit from the wergild anything.’”

"The Commander of the Faithful (as) ruled regarding the blood money (diyyah) of a murdered person that it is to be inherited by the heirs according to the Book of Allah (swt), the Exalted, and according to their prescribed shares, provided the murdered person has no outstanding debt. However, the maternal brothers and sisters do not inherit anything from the blood money."

"The boy is to be beaten with lashes but not subjected to the full prescribed punishment (hadd), whereas the woman is to be given the full hadd punishment." I asked: "What if she was married (muhsanah)?" Imam (as) replied: "She is not to be stoned because the one who had intercourse with her is not mature. However, if he had been mature, she would have been stoned."

I asked Imam (as) about a man who said to his wife, "O' adulteress." Imam (as) said: "He is to be given the legal punishment and they are to be separated after he has been flogged, and she will no longer be his wife." Imam (as) further said: "But if he said something that slipped out unintentionally without having any knowledge of it, intending only to anger her, then they are not to be separated."

The blood-money of a hunting dog is forty Dirhams as the Prophet (MGB) ordered the Khozayma tribe.”

"If, at the time half of him was freed, he was appraised so that the one who freed him could pay half of his value to the other partner, then half of him is free, and he should receive half the punishment prescribed for a free person and half the punishment prescribed for a slave. However, if he was not appraised, then he remains a slave and should receive the full punishment prescribed for a slave."

“Keep away from murdering a human being unlawfully. If one of you murders someone, he will be murdered a hundred thousand times in Hell in the same way as he had murdered his victim.”

"Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) was asked about a mukatab (a slave who has a contract for freedom) who falsely accused a Muslim man. Imam (as) said: 'He is to be flogged with the punishment of a free man - eighty lashes - whether he has paid any part of his contract or not.' It was asked: 'What if he commits adultery while he is a mukatab and has not paid anything from his contract?' Imam (as) said: 'This is the right of Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic. Fifty lashes are waived from him, and he is to be flogged fifty lashes.'"

I asked Imam (as) about a man who hired a wet nurse and gave her his child. While the child was with her, the wet nurse went and hired another wet nurse. The second wet nurse disappeared with the child, and it was unknown what happened to the child, and the original wet nurse could not be held accountable. Imam (as) said: "The full blood money (diyyah) is due."

The Messenger of Allah, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, said: A beast is a jubar, a well is a jubar, metal is a jubar and there shall be one-fifth for rikaz. Jubar is (the act of) killing in vain, for which there is no indemnity nor retaliation.

For this reason did We prescribe to the children of Israel that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men. He has killed but one? Imam (a.s.) replied, “He will be kept in a place in Hell where there will be severe chastisement and if he kills everyone, too he will be kept in this place.” The narrator asked, “What is the punishment if he murders again?” He replied, “His punishment is doubled.”

"If he forced her into that act, he will be punished in proportion to what she had paid of her contract, and the punishment will be waived for him in proportion to what remained of her contract. However, if she willingly participated with him, she will share the punishment equally with him and will be lashed the same amount."
